Hey everyone,
Am buying a performance kit from PCMofNC and it has the Efan conversion kit. I decided to try and source one locally. 73 Miles away is a 2000 LS1 Camaro Fan assembly for $65, or locally about 5 Miles away there is a 1999 3.8L Firebird Dual Fan Assembly for $30. $35 with a warranty. I could drive 73 miles but would rather not if I don't have to.
My question I guess is are they the same? I've looked all over and have seen people basically shrug and say they think it's the same and looks the same but aren't sure. It's hard finding CFM or flow numbers for these fans so I can't tell. Here is the info to forums i've found so far.

http://www.tacreationsusa.com/3_4_3_8_v6_to_ls1.htm - THIS is the most telling and states that 1999-2002 *SHOULD* not require a fan swap if doing a 3.8L to 5.7L swap for a trans am
